Busy Friday 🤯| Simple but Great | POV Cooking

[@danenorris1523]

This restaurant clearly needs better management. Food sitting in the window for that long is unacceptable! This man is solo in the kitchen busting his butt just for his hard work to come to a halt by poor table service. Management needs to hire more competent servers. Props to the cook for keeping a cool head. Thanks for your hard work and for the vids.

[@guywilliams6569]

Management should be running that food! The servers MIGHT be in the weeds and it's the MANAGER'S job to get that food out when the servers fall behind!

You are THE MAN in that establishment & the owner should be pleased to have you. With that being said, those waiters & waitresses should be able to get those orders within the 1st min of you placing them in the window. Hope your being paid whatever you want. You are the reason that place is booming.

Yeah, gotta get those plate out quick. I'm surprised people are willing to wait that long, I'd ask for a refund and go somewhere else or if I haven't paid yet just walk out because I never got served.

[@mustlovedogs5569]

Whoever preps and supplies the kitchen does a good job

[@splangley]

Only complaint I'd have is they should weigh and portion certain things. Fries and onion rings are cheap, and an experienced cook can eyeball some things, but pre-portioned would probably save money in the long run. Especially with things like the pre-cooked chicken breast.

[@grumbazor]

@@splangley But you need time and material to preportion it. someone with a scale and a lot of additional waste. so maybe its just cheaper to eyball and give a little more than paying someone for half an hour ore more just for preportioning. And you have to get rid of that additional wate or need a lot of small trays that need to be cleaned after.

[@matcampbell3552]

​@@splangley The chicken breast is the last thing you'd portion. The portion is the breast. You literally can't portion it.

[@TheCaotix]

​@@matcampbell3552 belive me, they are people that do it,like, each breast be like ### grms and cut the exed and when done took all that exed and grind them for chicken hamburgers or sausages......i was the one doing it in a rest once, i was like.....ok....why not just put the whole breast and use something more juicy for grind hamb? Nop, too much money, they pay us shit and charge people 3 time the norm cause it was one of those beach natural resorts, no cable electricity or water supply, big old tanks regielled every day from next town,.....i still cant belive how Cabo Polonio is so popular, is spency as hell, portions are a joke and there is 0 comoditys

You are a one man army. Never seen a person cook so fast with precision and accuracy doing so many orders my himself. My hat is off to you in what you can do. I must say your opinion about corn beef hash(corn beef with diced potatoes) cracks me up here in Hawaii. My son (23 yr old) still loves it with his eggs, rice and spam in the mornings so I usually cook it for him. I eat it too but I agree with you, it does look like dog food...lol. I love watching your videos and it shows me it is possible to cook fast, safely and accurate but it really takes a special skill set to do what you do and you got it!!! I've been cooking for my family and parties for over 50 years but not too many people can do what you do, great job!!! You give me new hope that the younger generation can do it!

I am 60 always been a great cook. Fast efficient like this man here only he has way more energy lol.

I would have hope for the new kids but 🤷🏼‍♀️ idk my daughter at 21 put pizza in oven came home smoke n fire alarm cuz she went back upstairs to play video games. She can barely boil water without help. My gs is 21 in September we came in door smoke alarms going off horrible smell.

[@carey7219]

The flow of a restaurant starts at the door. Keep the seating at an even pace. If a restaurant was a maritime ship, the host is the bow and lookout, the FOH is the deck, the manager is captain, the chef is the engineer, and the dish crew is the bilge. You can't barrel through the Drake Passage on a small boat with minimal deckhands, engineers, bilges, and lookouts. Same as you can't overload your hosts, FOH, cooks, and dish crew in a restaurant rush. But you can determine the direction of your bow. And you can determine the rate of your seating. I used to use this as a metaphor to help this concept stick during training. By the way, you're doing an awesome job. Watched the whole thing. Holding basically at least 3 stations. Super chill. Suuuper clean. Cool.

[@Nightfighter82]

I love that ya'll have the chargrill for steak, ham, and burgers. Makes them so much better than just cooking on a flat top. Even cheaper steaks for steak and eggs taste so much better.

It really doesn’t matter what else the servers are doing, they know food comes out for them to serve, so they always need to be attentive of the window, especially if it’s a big order. It’s part of their job to keep an eye out on the window so the customer gets served hot, fresh food.

There will always be short staff days where things just slow down a bit, it’s part of the game, but I’d be wanting to take the pressure off the FoH with some backup and ensuring the food was making it to the customer properly.
